Step-by-step explanation:
27/4 × 17/3
9/4 × 17/1
153/4
Lets Anna's age = A
Mr. Goldstein age = G
Mr. Goldstein is 4 times as old as his daughter Anna.
So G= 4A
In 4 years, he will be 3 times as old as Anna
we add 4 with Both their ages
G + 4 = three times of A + 4
G + 4= 3(A + 4)
We know G= 4A, replace it in above equation
4A + 4= 3(A + 4)
4A + 4= 3A + 12
Subtract 3A from both sides
A + 4 = 12
Subtract 4 from both sides
A = 8
So Anna's age = 8 years
Answer: 20.57142857
Step-by-step explanation:
148 = 3x + 3 + 4x + 1
Step one: combine like terms
148 = 7x + 4
Step 2: Subtract the 4 over to 148
144 = 7x
Step 3: Divide 7 on both sides
20.57142857 = x
Answer:
C) a positive correlation
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>More people ⇒ Longer time</em> is a positive correlation between those variables. However, <em>longer time</em> is not the desired outcome.
Rather, <em>shorter time</em> is the desired outcome. The correlation between <em>more people</em> and <em>shorter time</em> is negative. In order to compute that correlation numerically, one would have to define a function that would give a numerical value for "shorter time" that would model the goodness of outcome as time gets shorter.
